Complete Zevism Calendar for 2020

Happy Yule to everyone 8-) \
\
Bellow I present to you the Complete 2020 Calendar for Zevists. This project was completed for yet another year with the great contribution of @Lydia, @Cleo and @HP Zevios Metathronos.\
\
This version is for the most part very similar to the 2019 one, save for some three changes: \
\
1) Since there has been some members who ended up using the wrong Calendar by mistake, I decided to create a cover and move the info regarding the time zones and such to the first page. I also provided more details for countries that span over more than one time zone, in an attempt to make it easier for members living in those areas.\
\
2) Another (re)addition to this version are the info texts which appear in each month. These were written by @Lydia and cover topics such as the Holidays, different planetary alignments, and so on. In order to accommodate these, the Necronomicon meditations together with the info regarding the eclipses had to be removed. The eclipses are still shown, just not in the special box at the bottom of the calendar.\
\
3) The Holidays in the Southern Hemisphere have also been changed. In the previous versions of the Calendar, I used the dates listed on , but they do not appear to be accurate. The thing is most, if not all, of the Satanic Holidays are astronomical in nature, and they take place when the Sun is in certain degrees of a Zodiacal Sign. Take Imbolc for instance. This is celebrated when the Sun is at 15° Aquarius. If we are to follow the page above, those in the South would have to celebrate this in August, when the Sun is in Leo... Similar story for Yule and the other Holidays. They are meant to be astronomical in nature, not "seasonal".\
\
I tried to cover as many time zones as possible. Still, if there are any that have been left out, please mention this in the comments bellow and I'll create them.\

Happy Yule and Winter Holidays once again, and a warm HAIL ZEUS! :)\

Leaving aside his tone, I think Eric did make valid points. Personally I feel like he is wrong, but a more detailed explanation on why he is wrong would be interesting in my opinion.

The main thing that comes to my mind when thinking about this, is that Eric's point would be that MercuryR on the day of marriage would have an effect on the communication of the couple throughout the marriage, causing potential issues at times (even if they are small). Whereas the counterargument to that would be that the day of marriage above all else represents the emotional union of the couple, making Venus much more important.

I assume the reason why Lydia gave only short responses to these questions is not because of some emotional thing but rather because she is usually really busy. Bear in mind also that she said in the past (from what I remember) that she has a tendency to be very straightforward and to-the-point and that this can come off as rude or cold without intending to be.

Lydia if he is a Zevist just ask the God's to ((politely)) fuck him over...you can't tollerate this situation :o

This is very correct. I'm not much for online communications (forums and emails), some people are some aren't. For me, online communications are straightforward. Any time I make something in bold, it's more like in textbooks, to highlight or emphasise, not to yell. I dart in, say something, and dart out.

Off to do Ritual's now :)

I'd like to report an error I've just seen.

On the 4th of April, it says we can start a Venus Square, but Venus enters Gemini. I think that's a typo, so you could fix it.

Actually wait, Venus enters Gemini in the evening. I think you can still squeeze in the beginning of a Venus Square before Venus changes signs. But would starting a few hours before Venus changes signs cut it? I'm unsure.

Venus enters Gemini that day but it can be done earlier, when it is still in Taurus. I personally would not start a square when it is in 29* but we wanted all available dates for everything, for those who need it. The first version of the calendar focused more on ideal timings, whereas later versions are including "good enough" timings as there are many people who need to do workings asap :)

I noticed literally right after I made my post. My bad. I also agree in that I would try and land ideal timings if I can help it, but sometimes, it's urgent like you said.

Have a great day, Sister!

Hi!

I reside in Finland, so should I observe utc+2 calendar? It says it does not observe daylight savings so Im a bit confused. Thanks for the advice!

Finland timezone is Eastern European time, so download the one for Eastern Europe, yes.

What does ESBAT mean? its on the 10th of jan.

In case you missed it, this was explained in the 2019 calendar explanation:
https://ancient-forums.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=14198&p=57717&hilit=Esbat#p57717

"You'll notice there are cases where a Full Moon falls on a certain day and the Esbat is marked for the previous day. This is intentional. The Esbats are times of celebration, gatherings, etc., that are meant to make use of the increased energies of the Moon. With this in mind, every Full Moon that occurs before ±9:30 AM local time, is marked as Esbat for the previous day. Let's say there's a Full Moon occurring on 3rd of May at 5:00 AM. Most people are still sleeping at that hour and by the time they wake up, the Full Moon is already almost over (it lasts about 3hrs). In such a case the Esbat would be marked for 2nd of May. Because if anyone would want to set up rituals or a gartering later during the 3rd of May, the Waning Moon would already be in full effect so they wouldn't benefit from the real Full Moon energies. It's better to do the Esbat workings shortly before the Full Moon, than after."

Where does it say it does not observe daylight saving time (DST)?

On the first page of each calendar, right at the bottom, there is a list of all the countries that particular calendar is for.

Right on the first page: Entries on this Calendar do not observe Daylight Saving Time.

On utc +2 calendar it reads Egypt, Sudan, Libya. Yeah well Finland is the same timezone.

And how exactly does it make more sense to choose a Middle Eastern calendar instead of an European one? No offense, but I'm actually trying to understand the thought process one would follow in order to make such a choice, but I can't figure it out...

The reason there are TWO Calendars in UTC+2 (Northern Hemisphere) is because one observes DST, while the other doesn't. Eastern Europe observes it, while Egypt and Lybia does not.

Moreover, they're listed right next to eachother. The European one first, and the Middle Eastern one right under it. There's seriously no simpler or more intuitive way of displaying them, even if I wanted :)

I guess I made a mistake in haste or something. Thanks for pointing it out.
